Ara Partners’ new $800M fund will decarbonize old industrial assets

Ara Partners has raised an $800 million infrastructure fund aimed at addressing climate tech challenges, securing strong investor backing from global institutions. The firm has already made three significant investments, including in a waste recycler and biofuels terminal developer, focusing on repurposing assets for low-carbon solutions. This timely funding aligns with increasing clarity on the economic viability of decarbonization efforts and marks Ara's strategic expansion into climate tech, following successful investments like its Divert project, which efficiently transforms food waste into biogas.
